MediumMetricsAV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Apache Guacamole versions 1.1.0 and older
Description
The issue arises from improper validation of data received from RDP servers via static virtual channels. If a user connects to a malicious or compromised RDP server, specially-crafted PDUs could result in disclosure of information within the memory of the guacd process handling the connection.
Recommendations
For Apache Guacamole versions 1.1.0 and older, consider updating to a version that properly validates data from RDP servers to prevent potential information disclosure. As a temporary workaround, restrict connections to trusted RDP servers to minimize the risk of exploitation.
